These aren't very good but considering the conditions under which the
photos were taken they came out reasonable. Southern flying squirrel are
very small only 45-100 grams. They are also nocturnal.

Thanks for the kind words. I'm using peanut butter to bait the squirrels
in. If just nuts are used the squirrels glide down, grab a nut and
scurry away.

I'm lucky enough to have 11 species of squirrel in my area. On my next
outing I'll be search for the Talkative Red Squirrel (Tamiasciurus
hudsonicus loquax). I would think that it would be easy to find... :-)
